Islamic Relief's History in Bosnia
IR has been on the ground in Bosnia since 1992 during the Bosnian war. That's 28 years of delivering humanitarian aid and emergency relief.
Food, clothing, water and firewood were distributed through our offices and warehouses. After the initial emergency response, we rebuilt houses and public buildings like schools that were damaged by the conflict.
In 2001, we set up an interest-free loans system based on Islamic Financing principles, which continues to support unemployed people and provide real routes out of poverty. The number of business and housing loans issued by IslamicRelief increase year on year.
During these difficult times of COVID-19, we know you are itching to get out with safe distancing measures! So join us and start fundraising now.
